Woah, that guy lives in the same city as me.

That is a nice swap...

He's a nice guy. We've had discussions/debates about the V6 swap and torque/hp on CelicaFiles in the past...

About time he wrote that up. I followed his build and teething problems. Mad props to him man, such a sweet ride.... >wink.gif>
kinda curious if he had weight issue problems...... cause i can see entering a corner & oversteering because the front becomes a pivot point.....

Does anyone know what the engine bay size of a 5th compared to a 6th is? I've been thinking about doing this swap for a long time now
It should probably be about the same except you gotta deal with the height of the 1MFZE. I think its about 2-3 inches taller than the hood will allow. I'm pretty sure that the guy with the 5th gen ran into the same problem. I'll have to look at his write-up, I haven't heard about this thing for a while.
As long as the engine bay is the same size or bigger, Im in. This is the swap that I really want to do. I mean 200Hp and Torq from a N/A engine...then option for the superhcarger... that rocks
